Monday Humor--The HALF-WIT

The state government was concerned whether or not this fellow with a small farm in Missouri was complying with the wage-an-hour laws. So they sent an agent to the farm to check it out. When questioned, the farmer replied, "I pay my hired man two hundred dollars a week plus free room and board. I pay the cook a hundred fifty dollars a week and free room and board. Then there's the half-wit. He makes about ten dollars a week and pays for his own room and board. He does most of the work around here. I buy him a fifth of whiskey most Saturday nights, and he occasionally gets to sleep with my wife."
"That's the guy I need to talk to, the half-wit" demanded the government man.
"That'd be me," answered the farmer.
